Posted on Wednesday 26th November 2014 This is an archived report. The latest Madarao Now report can be found here.


As you may have heard, on Saturday night there was a strong earthquake in northern Nagano Prefecture, with areas to the west of where we are - Hakuba in particular - being shaken the most.


It was a shindo 4 on the Japanese scale here in Madarao. More than a tremor but nothing that caused any damage at all to the facilities here in Madarao Kogen. Everything has been checked and there's thankfully no damage to report. All remains on course of Madarao Kogen opening 19th December.


Not particularly winter like weather of late. The weekend saw some beautiful conditions, to be followed with rain yesterday and today as well. Not much snow around. We all know how quickly it can arrive when it gets going... but not yet.


Hopefully more winter-like weather patterns will return next week. And I'll be sure to give you an update!
